When I saw Janet in her deep burgundy boyfriend jeans, and then saw that they were on sale, I had to run out and get them. They were so much prettier on her than they looked on the website.
These are Rag and Bone, the Dre skinny boyfriend fit, in a color called "aged wine," which to me looks like an eggplant shade. It is just the color I wanted, and I love that they are not yet another pair of skinnies--my fall-back jeans fit, but I gotta say, some variety is nice! If I hadn't seen them on Janet, I probably wouldn't been moved to try them. Online I didn't think the color looked like what I wanted, they were expensive for me, and I hadn't had luck with Rag & Bone jeans I've tried on in the past.

They arrived yesterday and am wearing them today. Love them!!
I have other outfit plans for them, too, but today I had to wear something I could easily wear with a different pair of pants, because I'll have to change out of jeans to work for a couple of hours this afternoon.

The outfit:
Eggplant skinny boyfriend jeans (Rag & Bone); ivory long sleeved tee (Caslon) under mauve floral wool cap-sleeved tee (made by me); taupe
croc-textured moto booties (Donald Pliner, Dalis); long pearl-chain ivory stone pendant; pewter cutout belt (Fossil).

Thanks for looking, and thanks, Janet, for the inspiration to try these jeans. Suggestions welcome!
